abstract：:In adipose cells, insulin induces the translocation of GLUT4 by stimulating their exocytosis from a basal intracellular compartment to the plasma membrane. Increasing overexpression of a hemagglutinin (HA) epitope-tagged GLUT4 in rat adipose cells results in a roughly proportional increase in cell surface HA-GLUT4 lev...
